2013 Boys Soccer Tournament Pairings
Farmington Wins 1st CCC Boys Soccer Tournament
Colin Cheeseman scored a goal in each half to lead Farmington to a 2-0 win over previously unbeaten RHAM and give Farmington the championhip of the first ever CCC Boys Soccer tournament. Farmington, the champions of the CCC West, reached the championship round with a 1-0 win over West runner up Conard in the opening round followed by a come-from-behind win over Southern Division champion Berlin in the semis. CCC East champ RHAM, which entered the tournament with a 14-0-2 overall record, nipped Wethersfield 1-0 in its opening game then battled Glastonbury to a 0-0 tie through two over time sessions before advancing on penalty kicks 5-3.
Cheeseman gave Farmington the lead with less than two minutes left in the opening half when he scored off a feed from Sabri Akter. He gave the Indians an insurance goal midway through the second half when he outran the RHAM defense to snare a loose ball and booted it home. Cheeseman’s late game heroics had put Farmington into the finals after he rallied his team to the win over Berlin with a pair of goals in the final five minutes of the semi final.
Farmington was the tourney’s third seed and ended the tournament with an overall record of 15-1-3. RHAM entered the tourney as the number one seed, but could score only one goal in three tournament games. The Sachems finished the tourney at 16-1-2.
